Imagine Page #2

Synopsis: Set in Lisbon, Portugal at an institute for the blind where children are taught to live with their disability, to not take risks, and to be comfortable at all times. Ian a non-conformist teacher who is also blind is hired at the school and introduces revolutionary methods: Rejecting the use of a cane, Ian teaches the children to achieve spatial orientation by using all of their senses including moving by the resonance of sound vibrations (echolocation), instinct, and the creative use of their imagination. Confident and even slightly over-aggressive, Ian charms the children and gives them a reason to hope, though they are always testing and questioning him to prove that he is one of them and never seem quite convinced of his sincerity. Ian's sessions take place right under the window of Eva (Alexandra Maria Lara), an adult patient who never leaves her room and does not speak to anybody. Surprisingly, she becomes one of his most responsive students and there is even a hint of romance. Th

Somebody can be hit by the car!

That's right.

But they don't go straight

on the crossroad, do they?

The only thing that can hit them here

is the cat or the dog.

Ambulances drive in here,

as well as the cars with carbon and with the supply.

You are right.

I'll be more careful.

It's not enought thay you'll be more careful!

Look at yourself.

You're stuck in the middle of the room

because you're not able to see even the chair.

Why don't you use the cane?

I do.

Sometimes.

Far too less considering

the condition of your face!

Who should I speak to

in order to take them outside?

To me.

And I will provide the support

respectively to the number of patients.

I'd like to seat with them on the bench

in front of the door tomorrow.

Alright.

Just write the scenario of the lesson, please.

I'm sorry... Good morning...

Why do we all wait here?

Where's this line from?

We are grounded!

What happened?

The doctor didn't receive the scenario

of the lesson.

Have you forgotten?

Where were you supposed to go?

On the yard!

But you know the yard already.

Didn't you want to go somewhere further?

Sure we did!

We want to see new places!

We want to see new places!

Why don't you just crack open the door?

But we can't go out, right?

You don't need to go out,

crack opening the door is enough.

I'm sorry...

Alright, Serrano, go.

Can you come closer?

Tell me what you see.

The birds.

I can hear some kind of the machine...

... but I don't know what it is used for.

Those are cars.

Can you try a little bit more?

Try harder...

I hear something doing: boom, boom...

What?

I can hear something doing: boom, boom...

This is your heart pounding.

And that's all?

The sky is clear,

but the clouds are coming.

There's going to be a storm.

This is a jet plane.

Are you blindfolded?

No, then I wouldn't be able

to take care of you, right?

So you are not allowed to speak!

And you, Eva?

Me?

I was just passing by...

I saw something...

... but it was impossible.

What was that?

A ship.

What kind of the ship?

What ship?

A big ship.

What?

A big ship.

The one that sails on the ocean.

Can we go out?

We would hear it better.

No, you can't.

We can't.

I can.

But the door looking out the street

are on the other side.

Where is your cane?

Pardon me?

Where is your cane?

I don't own one.

So you can't join me.

Where is this cane?

I broke it down.

How come?

When I was walking around with a cane

everybody was staring at me...

They offered help...

... they pushed and pulled me.

So you broke it down on purpose?

You are able to walk without one...

Can I do that as well?

It's dangerous.

I'll think about that.

I want to try it now!
